Out of the Darkness - _TNY_6335
This is as close as I can get. 5:1 magnification with the Canon MP-E65mm lens and a 50.6 megapixel sensor makes this just 3 mm / .12" long juvenile humped orbweb spider (Gibbaranea gibbosa) - or possibly one of the other Gibbaranea species - fairly large.
Another 5:1 mag shot of this one here: www.flickr.com/photos/tinyturtle/53284847906/
and a behind the scenes shot of this one with my fingertip next to it for scale here: www.flickr.com/photos/tinyturtle/53503377607/
